do any of you have this issue.

when i recieve a text/mms, there is no "FROM" line, and the message gets trunacated that the first word goes where the "FROM" line should be.

also when i click reply it will try to reply to whatever the first word in the text/mms was.

i don't who is sending me text messages.

This was solved for me by erasing my extended rom and doing a hard reset. Everything works great for me now (using sprint version of this rom) except that something is causing lockups on soft resets. I think it MAY be SPB Backup. We'll see.

Nope. I didn't do anything special. There are some .cab files of programs that allow Caller ID via bluetooth, but not sure if it works with this ROM. Worth a try, though.

The file is available on this thread.

That did it! I'm getting announcements & ringtones via BT now! -- Thanks for your help!

Whoa! What the heck?!? I didn't notice this earlier, but when I'm sending a text message, I start to type out the name of the recipient. Usually, it will bring up a menu of names and their cell numbers. Now, it not only brings up their cell numbers, but their E-MAIL addresses, too?!? What the heck?

See attached PIC

(to protect the privacy of my contacts I've blocked out parts of the picture)

apparently you can text to their e-mail now. I forgot where it's stated in this thread (or maybe it's the release one), but it's normal.

kewl. what are the fixes?

I was unable to run the flash (threw a 101 connection error after the confirmation dialogue - going from this os to this other os). Attempts to use the uni_exitbootloader (from buzzdev.net) were unsuccessful most times (did work unpredictably if you would reboot the virtual machine instance). I'm going to make the following suggestion...

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PERFORM THIS ROM FLASH FROM VMWARE FUSION INSTANCE (XP) RUNNING ON MAC OSX. There appears to be some USB connection issues where the OS image can't recognize the device even though it's plugged in - probably just a bug from VMWare Fusion. The device was recognized (while in bootloader mode) on a WinXP machine - just not under a virtual machine instance.

This update ran smoothly (as did uni_exitbootloader to get my device out of bootloader mode) from WinXP. My device successfully flashed and is updated the first time from a windows XP box (Sprint ROM). Again, do not attempt on a VMWare Fusion OS image - you're only asking for heartache. Thanks to Helmi and Buzzdev.net for the incredible work. Donation forthcoming.

i just wanted to add that I was able to flash two xv6700 using parallels on a macbook. no problems at all. both have worked like a charm, and i cant believe what a great mood ive been in...

thanks helmi_c!

What's everyone's view on SPB Mobile Shell vs. HTC home interface?

I did a hard reset, then soft reset right when it said configuring you're device or something like that so it doesn't install any of the addon's.

works like a charm. :headbang:

正在试用中噢！不知道有什么改进？稳定不？

has anyone else noticed this?

make sure you turn off, "accept incomming beam requests" in the IR settings.

on my HTC Touch that made the battery last 1/3rd as long as it did disabled.

it should ask you Text messages, Outlook E-mail, MMS or new email account...

not sure why you dont see the Outlook Email option.. did you setup Activesync for push email with an exchange server?

i did not see "Outlook E-mail" until i used activesync to syncronize my apache to my computer. once i did that the "Outlook E-mail" appeared.
